Space shuttles bring astronauts into and out of space. Children will learn about the history of space shuttles, the advanced technology aboard, and how these vehicles perform their missions.
'From the Blastoff! Readers, this book is all about space shuttles. It teaches students what space shuttles are, how space shuttles launch, orbit and land. There is also a glossary, to learn more and index. The book has a very nice layout with bright colored pages, great photographs and accompanying text with bolded words that are found in the glossary, as well. All in all, a nice nonfiction book that young readers will enjoy and be able to learn a lot about space shuttles.', South Sound Book Review Council, Washington
